cis−trans Isomerization of Monounsaturated Fatty Acid Residues in Phospholipids by Thiyl Radicals
摘要:
Thiyl radicals reversibly attack the double bonds of methyl oleate and dioleoyl phosphatidyl choline (DOPC), thus producing methyl elaidate and the corresponding phospholipids containing trans-fatty acid residues in high yield. These processes are radical chain reactions with relatively long chain lengths. The rate constant for the beta-elimination of a thiyl radical from the adduct radical has been estimated to be 6 x 10(6) s(-1) at ambient temperature. The cis-trans isomerization of fatty acid residues in DOPC vesicles (multilamellar vesicles and large unilamellar vesicles made by the extrusion technique) by a thiyl radical, generated from biologically relevant thiols, has also been studied in detail. The presence of 0.2 mM oxygen does not influence the effectiveness of cis-trans isomerization in both homogeneous solution and lipid vesicles. This process, which does not cause lipid degradation but permanent modification of the membrane constituents, ultimately influences the barrier properties and functions of biological membranes.

A fusogenic liposome comprising a lipid bilayer comprising a plurality of lipid molecules having 14 to 24 carbon atoms, wherein at least one of said lipid molecules is functionalised with a first functional group of a specific binding pair capable of binding to a complementary second functional group of said binding pair; and optionally further comprising an immune system activating agent functionalised with a complementary second functional group of said binding pair bound to said first functional group is provided. Methods of treatment of cancer using the fusogenic liposome are also provided.
Described herein are nanoparticles that are coated with a bilayer of molecules formed from surface binding molecules and amphiphatic molecules. The bilayer coating self assembles on the nanoparticles from readily available materials/molecules. The modular design of the bilayer coated nanoparticles provides a means for readily and efficiently optimizing the properties of the bilayer coated nanoparticle compositions. Also described herein are uses of such nanoparticles in medicine, laboratory techniques, industrial and commerical applications.
